Chapter 1443

"What do you mean, blood donation?"

Odie's question lingered in the air, but before the nurse could respond, Sophie cut in. "You just stay put and heal up. I've got Colby's crew keeping an eye on you outside. I'm not sure what's happening at the casino, so I'm heading over to check it out." With that, Sophie made her way to the door, slipping past the nurse before she could stop her.

Odie turned to the nurse, his voice cold, "What do you mean by blood donation?"

The nurse met his eyes, feeling a shiver run down her spine. She stammered, "Well, the blood bank was running low, so..."

"So what?"

"So, Ms. Sophie donated some blood. She hasn't had much rest yet..."

"And she's out and about without proper rest? Is she trying to stir up more trouble?"

Seeing Odie attempt to rise, the nurse quickly pushed him back down, insisting, "You're seriously injured and just had surgery. You can't go anywhere!"

Odie barely moved before pain shot through his wounds.

The nurse firmly held him down, "You're not going anywhere until you've healed."

Odie's gaze stayed glued to the door.

But now, he was stuck in bed, unable to leave.
